' NITED STATES PATENT *OFFICEV WILLIAM sIssoN, OF GARNETT, KANsAs.

RULER.

SPECIPICATION' forming part of Letters Patent No. 352,78'7, date November 16, 1886.

Application filed May 24, 1886.- Serial No. 203.152. I (Modelzl ruler and the making of false lines or blots.

The drawing is a perspect-ive view of the ruler provided With its attachment7 and showing its relation to' the hands When in use.

The ruler A has attached to it a tubular socket or folded clamp, B, into the opening in which the little finger of the left hand is inserted, in which position the ruler is firmly connected to the hand. When in use, this connection serves to firmly hold the ruler from slipping from the side pressure of the pen,and when not in use the left hand, with the ruler attached7 is removed from the page with the ruler still attached to it, in which relation the ruler is quickly applied to and removed from the paper, as may be required, thus saving much time for the book-keeper, and rendering his Work more convenient and less liable to be marred by irregular lines or hlots.

Having thus described my invention, what I clam, and desre to secure by Letters Patent, is-

As a new article of manufaoture, a ruler having attached thereto a finger socket or olamp, substantially as and for the purpose described.
